Hi everyone,
I'm taking CS soon and am incredibly stressed. In reading over the CS official guide and watching the video I had a couple of questions that I hoped someone might be able to answer.
FA mentions in the minicases to measure orthostatics for loss of consciousness and GI bleeds. Is it sufficient to just measure HR supine and upright? If not under what circumstances should you also measure BP supine and upright? ( I'm so slow at measuring BP)
Also Kaplan core cases suggests that if you run out of time to say 'I'm sorry I have an emergency page to answer. I'll be back later'. Did anyone say something similar if they ran out of time. Could this ever be interpreted as inappropriate conduct because you are continuing to engage the SP after the encounter is over?
Thanks so much in advance!
